Best Narcoleptic Poems


Forty Winks

I am a narcoleptic,
I sleep at any time,
no doubt I’ll drop off frequently
before I end this ………………………………rhyme.

It can be quite embarrassing,
between just me and you,
in the bank the other day
I dozed off in the queue.
As if that wasn’t bad enough
I let out quite a snore,
a real raucous rasper
that left my throat quite sore.

My constant napping problem
has somewhat skewed my fate;
destined to be a spinster,
I snooze on each first date.

There was one special fella
who took me out to dine,
my face was drawn into my plate
as I closed these eyes of mine.
He gave me money for the bill
and stifling a grin
he walked away and whispered
“You’ve something on your chin”

I think I’ll have to end now,
I’m sensing heavy blinks,
I cannot write another word
I need my forty ………..................... winks

Premium Member Villains Of Capeesh

Gargoyles of deepest night in an island strangest
Preys of mangled bodies they can't digest
Rounded, popping eyes craving with long nails
Caveats of animals eating their own flesh

Villains of Capeesh roaming as beasts
On tables and floors, scratched and feasts
Gobbling maudlin juices of live carmine
Spilling on throat and skins of grapevine

Brutes of cursed and mythical roots
Flutes of cold bodies tootling in boots
Carcasses of narcoleptic nerves in tears
Taunted and pierced by tusks and smears

An Oxymoron In Oblivion

An Oxymoron in Oblivion



My soul sweetly shouts a supernova of a yawning yell
To ponder and penetrate our inept gravitational shell
My love to explore the dimming nebula of lustrous light
To faithfully fulfill my dreams of the narcoleptic night

Within the sirens of silent solitudes, there must be one
To liberate my lachrymal linger that I have sanely shun
At the speed of limited light, I unleash my venting verses
They reach a billion suns and serve no pompous purpose

Symphonic solar systems in a calcific chaotic ranting rage
Statically spinning gasses of sorrow surrender to engage
Black hole bathing & banishing within the abundant abyss
My heart faintly fluttering admits the hexed harmonic hiss

Asteroids comets & meteors in their felony friendly flight
Hindering my jaded journey defenseless in drooling delight
Sabbatical stars sailing through streams of self-seduction
Will my love reach the end of its frivolous fusion fluxion?

The Karma of Pharma

In the morning I take heed, I need my fix…
Running around like a headless steed, I start to mix…
Just an ambient aphrodisiac, my tantalizing tea…
A dormant astral amnesiac, in a matrix reality…

My deficit hyperactivity starts to mourn, I need my stimulant…
Relying on prescription worn, a narcoleptic nilpotent…
Looking for my performance enhancer, I strike a pose…
I turn into an exotic dancer, where are my clothes?

I’m an electrical euphoriant, just plug me in…
A vexing viral variant, a sinister seductive sin…
A deprived dopamine, searching for neural transmission…
My effusive endocrine, in a rambunctious remission…

In my magnetic resonance imaging, chronic pain in depression…
Where dimensions are diminishing, I’m open to confession…
Please unplug me from the world, time to disappear…
Cover me within a comfy curled, take away the fear.

Your Amphetamine

Origamirror

a voice
has the choice to speak
into the pockets of wind which are parcel carriers
connecting the truth with whispers
heard on a deafening level 
only overshadowed by silence
shaking loose the lies
sleeping in the crevices of the fraying veil
tattered in sounds of smiles sounding laughter
to tear open the tears that have damned up faith
leaping like a frog catching light
born from incubators in the veins of lily pads
padding pillow tops underneath narcoleptic dreams
envisioning a visage of voluptuous vaults
protecting gemstones donated by gravity
in a tail spin 
spinning tales to be told 
at a dinner party hosted by the sun and the moon
gathering gratitude with a net made of stars
caressing composure courageously
with hearts beating in synchronized stares
staring into eyes worn by your energy
that has been an architect for our ancestors
since an apparatus was designed to authenticate
inspiration used to create and validate
reasons to change like the seasons
seasoning the hourglasses recycling time
tripping over lay lines beginning to sway
like the song fermenting in the clouds still yet to rain
so let go of the reins
there's no sense in trying to control
reflecting directions reflectively directed
by reflections that direct a reflected directive
able to reflect inner directives 
balancing the compass
leading to compassion
so blossom and pass on in
don't forget to remember landmarks
marking the lightyears you've traveled
aging with grace given by the ripples of righteousness
nestling the words i was chosen to write

for us

Dog Tired This Day March 29th 2018

A minor typo found this fanatic spell binding hound to resend a poem posse sub bully dashed off in a huff (past the hour) if nothing else than fur his spurt full of peace, bot tee, and mind. 
     Thus this Norwegian bachelor wannabe (most closely aligned with said status closely attained unmarried state by pledging my Unitarian troth)  tilled, sown, and furrowed spirit nsync with the missus sleeping in close proximity.

dog tired this day - march 29th, 2018
no matter this dawg gone pup
    took numerous one after another cat nap
his utterly fatigued
    body electric still ragged

    as if he went without sleep for a lifetime,
    ensnared within a time warp,
    espied that aggravating "aw SNAP"
(error code instead of a webpage

    indicating Chrome happens to be 
    experiencing problems loading)
    or, simultaneously
    caught in a narcoleptic parent trap

thus, while a burst of energy
    temporarily doth prevail
(a priori which extreme fatigue
    of body, mind and spirit -

    more troublesome, and worse than -
    getting crucified
    with a rusty nine inch nail
alleviated with deep sleep finds

    much more tiredness
    than usual quotidian sleepiness
    bruiting this male)
    being imprisoned (for high
    gram matt tick crimes

   and misdemeanors) such as: comma, splices,
    dangling a modifier, splitting an infinitive,
    unnecessary parenthesis (), et cetera
    which landed me punctually,

    proverbially, and squarely 
    in the slaammed shut jail
fed thin gruel with grubs that didst flail
nauseating pluperfect revulsion
    each time hide exhale

which, many hours long rests did restore
for a bit of time only for totally tubular
     exhaustion to come roar
ring back leaving me tour
    charred as if...i fought in every major war.


Split Persona

Fusion of the wild, wet and free
As you breathe sweet nothings onto me
Into me slowly in line with desire
Integrate urges upon my retire
Border illusion, behavior forgiven
Guilty confusion punished in prison
Linger me deep with the anti septic
As devious thievery pawns the eclectic 
Dilute remains of hearts that melt
Intrude me softly below the belt
Where lust awakes the narcoleptic
And narcissists become epileptic
Poise the remnants of fallible heat  
Concentrate shivers and implicate me
Repeat impeccable summits of pleasure
Perfect the strokes by which time we measure 
Teach me to follow, go with the flow 
Lead me to depths of places you know
Fall into screams that show your reprise
Lead me to ecstasy, open my eyes
Rid me of tendencies harbored with ease
Show me of paramounts, cure my disease

Buttermorphosis

I recall the rural life of the butterfly
Extravagantly —that proud floating mass of wings.
Her wings flutter from sea to coast so eloquently,
Yet silent with the muteness of frightened breeze.
They are banners with buntings of newness — striped,
Spotted, arched, dotted.
Her flamboyant life history, reading it backwards,
Is an exhibition of time and cosseted patience....
The winged one, aged and tried, schleps to the stirs of a narcoleptic pupa,
Hanging on the banisters of a dear larva who's egged on to
Run the full circle and announce the mating time and a most
Fragile conception.

Inconsolable

My friend, my enemy,
the conductor of my strength,
the Judas of my weakness
how you tempt me
with narcoleptic rages

I weep under the guise 
of regeneration
slipping through minutes,
through hours

unconsolably weary, 
drawing deeper inside the empty,
a wounded solitaire

I surrender the fight
one nap at a time

I'm tired
so very tired...

12:27-Ish

When your best friends
Wear lab coats
And carry instruments
The steal smiles
And steam the meaningful 
stains
Out of your soul,
(The little imperfections
In all of us that 
Help sculpt and mold
Our images)
Remaining self-aware for
Self-awareness’ sake
Becomes potentially problematic.
Floating above reason with 
A touch of lethargy
Maximizes self-control
But detracts from
Fundamental choice.
Insomnia limited to
Social norms
Slashes and burns 
A one-way path to 
Narcoleptic days
And where have the 
Weeks gone? 
Seasons move like
Speed-demon racecars,
Their tornado tailwinds
Blowing up skirts as they pass.
The looks I draw would
Tarnish steel,
Heavy and demeaning;
With an arrogant smile,
I brush off my shoulder
And look through
The wormhole.

The Stalker

A perfect man, he pretended to be.

Using a con game on the lonely.

She was trapped in his lies.

Until she saw the evil in his eyes.

"Be careful, you dazed walker. Keep your distance from the stalker."

She is no longer his possession,

but can't escape his deception. 

She has to see his dreadful face before calling 911.

When it happens, the damage may already be done.

"Be careful, you sleepy walker. Keep your distance from the stalker."

He wakes her from a peaceful slumber.

A reminder, he has her number.

Solid walls sometimes shake.

Victimized by his quake.

"Be careful, you drowsy walker. Keep your distance from the stalker."

Preying upon her during the night.

Like a vampire, he feeds on fright.

A doorknob turns without a knock.

She is glad the door has a lock.

"Be careful, you narcoleptic walker. Keep your distance from the stalker."

High and Sleepy

I’ve seen your eternity
I’ve seen your wisdom
Your thoughts
Your life in journey
I have found your pursuit
I feel tired
Writing here
Sitting here
Your wisdom
Drives me from eternity
Restaurant fantasia
Megaluf aphrodisiac 
Ginger narcoleptic
Clouds of blue
Blue liquid
Soo tired
Wisdom of cry
Tomorrow never dies
 Whip of dizziness
Frank psycho
Smooth driving
Why oh why?
Godsend
The future of 5 hearts
Wisdom of five blazes
I hear the hidden voices
The hidden life
The hidden underground
The life of thirty years
Cool fantasia
Liquid!
I am high and sleepy

Lava stiletto lips
drips Medusa kisses
transmitting stone corpse aperitifs
she slithetrs hither on 
out of night sways of
narcoleptic nuptial napkins
snake strand locks of love
conceal couquettic tenderizing
fetish fantasies of climactic 
carnivorous copulations. 
Leviathan legs of boa bondage
clench my every clandestine thrunch.
Gonad groundswells of deep droning
desires-immersive of Eden's ego, forgo
an all atoned, permissable persuasions,
passions primitive, albeit death defying
defamations. I thus conclude a deciduous
daunting demise driven by perennial postulates
and hormonal harassed hecticals capturing
coital consequences, feverently focused, 
freely formed frailties, neatly nestled, 
innately interred, individually invested
by human happenstance helpings of
hepatic herbs of mythological memories
measured in manmade miniature statuettes
cold carved into rejuvenating relics
of our own Rock of Ages intent.

Premium Member Gaslight Square

In another narcoleptic nightmare,
along crepuscular curbs
I am endlessly stalked by the depraved. 
Their railing against conspiring contrivances.
These gaslighting doctors of spin.

On every corner a barking Icke or Alex Jones,
On every path a fear-mongering Judy Mikovits.
Get hip to all the globalist conspiracies, 
Look smart, as all the word-crafters think for you!
Submit, as all the witchcrafters take from you!
These gaslighting doctors of spin.

Everywhere the nebulous deep state threat! 
Don’t you know?
OAN told me so,
	and Fox News provided the echo.
Co-conspirators of conspiracy conspiring,
Their shrieking against baleful bogeys,
Their immolation of fading truths.
These gaslighting doctors of spin.

Warlord POTUS, a Stalin, and Hitler disciple.
“Truth isn’t truth,” Rudy told us, after all.
The best control of the masses:
choke all channels 
with conspiring conspiracy cocktails,
these gaslighting doctors of spin.

Soporific Narcoleptic Pull Wielded Courtesy Innocent Looking Bed

Hypnagogic spell immediately cast
overpowering drug induced state fast
overcome even those who just woke
prolonged narcotic effect could last
bajillion years (hyperbole to wake
any lil lulled reader) superfast.

Before he/she succumbs without blame
impossible mission monseigneur or dame
to break loose against buttressed bed frame
magnetic pull overpowers
superman/woman and/or lame
nope, I can't rattle off any specific name
only no man, woman, nor child can tame
overpowering urge greater than whatshername?

Ja Sleeping Beauty, or similar
facsimile thereof within eye blink
shutters lids with soundless clink
quite elementary ma rinky dink
poem, but would ya expect me,

an arrogant, defiant, haughty,
career punster who doth hoodwink
matt er of fact Scott
tush trumpeting ratfink,
meanwhile, I will not let thee think,
lest ye become mettle some as hot zinc.

And what thwart my feeble
attempt to bewitch and beguile
quite aware ye probably reedsy
to spew glippy glop gloopy bile
spurring lifesaving recourse
insane asylum, cuz bedlam

forces thee to dial,
and splutter exhibiting harried style
swiftly tailored demeanor
hooping I get just desserts,
and be condemned at trial
within interim and meanwhile...

Yours truly will exalt inside
unit b44 downing
one after another
B52 eventually died
(jettisoning these lovely bones)
at least say to himself,

while gratefully dead, he tried
to curry lunacy, (albeit harmless)
across the the web, world wide
reading experience this
letterman being your lucky charm guide
into outer limits of twilight zone
ha... ha... ha... no place for ye

to run and hide,
which bolsters me prejudice and pride
without sense and/or sensibility
(think Jane Austen),
whose ghost would chide,
one twenty first century wordsmith,
who seeks a bartered bride

hmm, maybe someone allied
i.e. linkedin with AllPoetry,Cosmofunnel
FaceBook, MyPoeticSide,
PoetrySoup, Prose, All Poetry,
Hello Poetry, Tumblr...
I even roll out welcome Matt
for thyself tug get shanghaied.
